Circle's Baby Massage Guidance 5 - Arms and Hands

Hi everyone thanks for tuning in.

We have made 5 videos for massaging the feet, tummy, chest, arms and hands, face and back. This video focuses on massaging your baby's ARMS AND HANDS.

Remember to massage in a nice warm room, with dimmed lights and some relaxing music. Don't try to massage your baby if they have just been fed or they will be sick. Also the massage is unlikely to work well if they are crying, upset or unwell. If babies have had any vaccinations, please don't massage on this area for 10/12 days.

Please take your time massaging each stroke, I have rushed it slightly on the videos, but you should try and make the massage last for 15/20 minutes.

You can use coconut, olive or sunflower oil. Anything with no perfume in it.

Normally we would teach one extra stroke a week and build up the massage, so you can take your time adding more strokes in as you watch the other videos. Baby massage can exhaust babies if you manage to massage for 15/20 mins so it can really help encourage them to sleep more.
